Latest outage, problems and issue reports in San Francisco and nearby locations:

  • espi espi (@espi) reported from San Francisco, California

    I tried to customize my Slack color scheme and it’s nothing short of appalling. Come to think of it, I never really was good at AOL color profiles, either.

  • rod4p Paul Rodriguez (@rod4p) reported from San Francisco, California

    @AOL poor guy. He's a nice person.🙁

  • TenantsUpstairs Natasha Vo (@TenantsUpstairs) reported from San Francisco, California

    my first aol screen name was sk8rgrl91 so never had any doubt about it

  • rod4p Paul Rodriguez (@rod4p) reported from San Francisco, California

    @AOL That's really sad. poor girl.🙁

  • stevenredd stevenredd (@stevenredd) reported from San Francisco, California

    @Ky71Matt @notcapnamerica Hello! Of course I still have an AOL address! How am I supposed to sign up for porn sites I’m never going back to again?!?!

  • rod4p Paul Rodriguez (@rod4p) reported from San Francisco, California

    @AOL I agree. The problem is a lot of people either can't afford or have no room to store clothes. Very sad.😐

  • cw4emeryville Courtney Welch (@cw4emeryville) reported from Emeryville, California

    I never learned to type from Mavis Beacon programs, it was using AOL instant messenger everyday after school for an hour.

  • rod4p Paul Rodriguez (@rod4p) reported from San Francisco, California

    @AOL I feel bad for her. This guy wanted to cheat on his wife [ she didn't know he was married ] Then wanted to get rid of the problem when he was to dumb to use protection. 😐

  • davidbyttow David Byttow (@davidbyttow) reported from San Francisco, California

    My mom controlled our AOL account when I was about 13 and would come into my room to sign me in. So, I created an entirely fake AOL login flow in Visual Basic and had her sign me in once to capture the password. Old school phishing.

  • thetylerhayes Tyler Hayes 🍩 bring donuts (@thetylerhayes) reported from San Francisco, California

    @joshelman AOL was a literal life changer for me. That dial up sound may be awful but even to this day it makes me want to go back a little

  • jjsignal JJSignal™ (@jjsignal) reported from El Cerrito, California

    @The_Katbot It was also the reason I managed to push my parents off of AOL and move on to a better ISP, since AOL required its launcher to be open to stay online. I think it was a common complaint. Before that, I would use Net Zero accounts until I was flagged as a "heavy user" good times.

  • sunnyfbaby el sole, himself. (@sunnyfbaby) reported from Oakland, California

    @solesupremacy AOL -> chats -> Japan -> bay area a-z-ns lol. Damn im that old

  • ZachRoth Zach Roth | zachroth.eth (@ZachRoth) reported from San Francisco, California

    I straight called AOL tech support at one point to ask them how to open a “dot ZIP” file.

  • pkellner pkellner (@pkellner) reported from San Francisco, California

    @julielerman @AOL My dad asked me once why his computer was so slow. He said he had bought some software from Nigeria for a great deal that was suppose to speed it up.

  • yasSF Yasmine Scallan (@yasSF) reported from San Francisco, California

    AOL! TERRIBLE! It was to mean “America On Line”! Could not keep a tech advisor complete a help request on line to resolve problems with my email. Jess said “hello, what seems to be the problem” then disappeared and I had to pay to get him on line to start! VERIZON wake up please!

  • mrjasonroy Jason Roy (@mrjasonroy) reported from San Francisco, California

    @jpawgmafia Downloading the STATE logos off of AOL online and printing them up and putting them in my room. That aged the **** out of me.

  • SFnatives San Francisco Native (@SFnatives) reported from San Francisco, California

    @stephendelong78 @CALWDA @JulieSuCA @CA_EDD #CAEDD Is a complete disaster. INCOMPETENCE. It’s like as if someone who has dial-up Internet, an AOL email account and thinks ctrl+alt+delete is tech support is running the IT programming Dept. @CA_EDD The “pending” glitches and lack of cust. service needs to end ! PUA, PEUC>PAY

  • ghiamia73 melania’s motherboard (@ghiamia73) reported from Oakland, California

    @StephenGlahn @AOL And Capitol police didn’t do shit

  • w00t John Vantine (@w00t) reported from Oakland, California

    @mygiantrobot DMX - Ruff Ryders Anthem. Pre-Napster, there were private chat rooms on AOL where people would “serve” MP3s. So painfully slow on a 14.4 kbit/s dial-up connection. Simpler times!

  • rod4p Paul Rodriguez (@rod4p) reported from San Francisco, California

    @AOL Poor lady she tried to help. Maybe if she would have helped the student pay they would have left her alone. Very sad.🙁

    @nancithegreat Tbh idk. We had Bellsouth and Yahoo. I didn’t really use AOL. Never cared to look either

  • messletters ຕ Messletters ຕ (@messletters) reported

    @Shopify Maybe just do this for the US? The rest of the world has never used AOL. To me there is no nostalgia to that sound; it's just plain annoying to be honest.

  • michelewith2Es Wifey’Shell (@michelewith2Es) reported

    @RudyCerda “Hang up the phone! I need to check my aol chat”

  • Key20563738 Key (@Key20563738) reported

    I looked up all of them instruments on the AOL trial disc and I did it at Leah house she was saying at 1723 Gillespie. Now I see why I was getting all them bogus *** arrest they know where it was too stupid to look about an instrument for NASA.

  • TheJeffOrr Jeff Orr - 98/100 (@TheJeffOrr) reported

    Remember the days of AOL CDs? They were freely available everywhere. Making the service pervasive was a massive win for the company. It was also its peril.

  • InaMac2020 Ina: I AM fortis et liber, sanguinis pura (@InaMac2020) reported

    @RudyCerda I had to pay aol on my credit card about 200 bucks a month for long slow painful dial up.

  • SardonicCanuck SardonicCanuck (@SardonicCanuck) reported

    @FeloniousMusk @globeandmail I can’t worry about that right now, my AOL stock is way down🤔

  • jimbobvanl Jim van Langen, Peacemonger/Professional Engineer (@jimbobvanl) reported

    @lorraine_luv1 I called the help line for Deskmate/ PC-Link (AOL predecessor) for my Tandy 1000SX & spoke directly with AOL co-founder Steve Case.

  • AndyTheGiant Andy Rosenberg (@AndyTheGiant) reported

    @benkaufman Hold on, my dial up is slow and I can’t log on to AOL for some reason. My mom must be using the landline.

  • CyborgGrandma the unraveling of pupthegirl (@CyborgGrandma) reported

    @windupmay @HirLivingWeapon if it makes you feel better people have been pulling that kind of horse **** since i was rp’ing in aol chatrooms as a kid in the 90s lol
